It would then seem that the file is not in a fully compatible format. File type and codecs are important, but there are more encoding settings that can influence compatibility. If you encoded this file yourself, then consider using a conversion/encoding settings from an Apple TV preset.

I think AirPlay is limited to 1080p max, except for a few special cases with the Apple TV 4K box involved.

What are you trying to AirPlay? Is it a streaming service (which one), or a local file (what format)?

It seems you are trying to AirPlay from the Apple TV app. Correct?

Has the LG TV been added to the Home app, and assigned to a room? That may be needed for AirPlay 2 functionality. Add a HomeKit accessory to the Home app - Apple Support


Can you AirPlay anything else? E.g. screen mirroring the phone’s home screen?


Use AirPlay to stream video or mirror the screen of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

I’m playing home videos H264 AAC.


which are no streaming but local files on my Mac.


I am trying to play from my AppleTV app, or QuickTime.




Using AirPlay on (Web)youtube, streaming works.




Playing with mirroring Mac screen works




On my iPhone 12 pro, the behavior is the same. It works fine with Photo app but not with Tv app
